While the resolution of my screen is unremarkable, on the tablet
form factor the UI seems great. Very clean and usable. Someone
the buttons are the smallest usable size, but the spacing between
them means my taps are not mistaken for other buttons, and it's
very usable for this screen.
The tablet variant was already available previously :), but anyway
thanks for trying this now!
- Built-in ability to sync database via Cloud storage (I am
planning to
start with Dropbox). This then supports the usecase of using
the same
database across multiple devices (Desktop, Tablet, Mobile).
As someone who likes to self host with Synology, I would love to
see integration with that.
You mean a NAS on the local network? What would be the interface
to that? Local http(s)?
Are there existing integrations for that with other apps?
- Ship the app with pre-packaged KJV for an easier start.
This would definitely be awesome. Or, like Xiphos on desktop,
bring up the module manager on first boot to guide the user
through installation. Even being familiar with Ezra it took me a
moment to find the installer. Some sort of first run guide might
be a good idea for the app, in general.
Yes, I'll definitely consider these enhancements.
Feedback is very welcome!
I was bummed that it didn't discover the modules I had already
installed through Bishop, but that was no great loss. I don't
have anything custom installed through either one. Just a handful
of basic Bible modules to use when I am at church. This is
probably related to your post script statement below.
Yes, I am currently not reading/writing other locations than the
app-internal storage anymore with Android >= 11.
Which Android version are you on? If this is not working with
Android < 11 than I may still be able to do something for the next
release.
I love Ezra's inline note editing. I would be curious about a way
for me to back up that content before I go too far with using it.
Yes, that is also related to the point about syncing the database.
I am personally using an Android 10 tablet and there I don't have
the /sdcard issue yet. So there I am using the "DropSync" app to
sync a particular /sdcard folder with Dropbox. I manually changed
the location of the database in the configuration of the app. This
is quite neat because you can essentially switch back and forth
between Desktop and Tablet and work with the same data.
Overall, first five minute impression is that this is a solid app
experience. And it arrived just in time to serve me at church
this morning!
Cool!
Enjoy your Sunday afternoon!
Best regards,
Tobias
